A new solver featuring time-space adaptation and error control has been
recently introduced to tackle the numerical solution of stiff
reaction-diffusion systems. Based on operator splitting, finite volume adaptive
multiresolution and high order time integrators with specific stability
properties for each operator, this strategy yields high computational
efficiency for large multidimensional computations on standard architectures
such as powerful workstations. However, the data structure of the original
implementation, based on trees of pointers, provides limited opportunities for
efficiency enhancements, while posing serious challenges in terms of parallel
programming and load balancing. The present contribution proposes a new
implementation of the whole set of numerical methods including Radau5 and
ROCK4, relying on a fully different data structure together with the use of a
specific library, TBB, for shared-memory, task-based parallelism with
work-stealing. The performance of our implementation is assessed in a series of
test-cases of increasing difficulty in two and three dimensions on multi-core
and many-core architectures, demonstrating high scalability
